意思
Wrongdoers will eventually be punished.
文化背景
The phrase is often used in political discourse to express frustration with the slow pace of the judiciary. The phrase is identical in Slovak ('Božie mlyny melú pomaly') and carries the same cultural weight. The 'mill' metaphor is common across the region, reflecting a shared agrarian history where the mill was a central, powerful machine. Despite being an atheistic country, Czechs use 'Boží' (God's) in many idioms without religious intent.
Use it for comfort
If a friend is upset about an injustice, this is the most 'Czech' way to comfort them.
Don't change the words
This is a fixed expression. Changing 'pomalu' to 'rychle' makes it sound like a mistake, not a joke.
